One ad that really caught my attention was Best Buy's ad with Justin Bieber and the Osbournes. It makes fun at how fast technology moves. With Ozzy styled in Tron-like clothing getting more and more confused as the Gs kept increasing (3G to 4G, etc) Justin Bieber gets switched in (much like Best Buy can upgrade your older stuff for the newer version). They end the commercial comedically by the Osbournes asking what a "Bieber" is and a man (Bieber in disguise) saying "kinda looks like a girl." By feeding into what many people feel and say, they made an ad that was an instant hit. Kids loved Bieber, Parents loved Ozzy, and everyone thought that making fun of how older people "can't keep up with technology" was funny.
Ads are getting more and more creative now. It's hard to get people's attention so they're becoming more aggressive. Tell me what you think :)
